The bit after you quote is the important bit but at the moment I get 
"Too many requests". This is because all installations of digikam use 
the same app ID and Google limits the number of requests to their API 
from a sing app ID. I am not sure when the count resets and I have not 
had any luck morning or evening nor at the beginning of the month. It's 
all a bit of a pain really.
